I'm a pleb Found this online: The QBO in an easterly phase tends to promote a weaker polar vortex in the stratosphere, resulting in a propensity for more stratospheric warming events during the winter months (allowing high latitude blocking and -NAO episodes to flourish). The QBO in a westerly phase tends to allow a stronger polar vortex to form, limiting high latitude blocking and resulting in a more positive AO and NAO phase during the winter months. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
